Liquid preparations are often used in order to meet the challenge of providing appropriate formulations for a wide range of differently aged paediatric groups. Dosing accuracy of pharmaceutical suspensions depends mainly on the homogeneity of the dispersion and the dosing aid supplied. However, previous studies mainly focussed on the effect of redispersibility of pharmaceutical suspensions on content uniformity.

The prescriptions of children aged < 12 years who had attended the paediatric outpatient clinic between January and May 2006 were studied retrospectively. A total of 1944 prescriptions were analysed after excluding those that were illegible. 7146 drugs were prescribed and the numbers of drugs prescribed per patient per visit were between 1 and 8 with a mean value of 3.7. Injections were prescribed for 349 (18.0%) patients and artemether 144 (41.3%) was the most frequently prescribed injection.
